Illustration for Fast-track Approvals Act 2024

When a panel looks at a substantive application, they do not have to hold a hearing. You do not have a right to speak to the panel. The rules about this are similar to rules in other laws, such as the laws referenced at https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=LMS363381 and https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=LMS858125. This means the panel can make a decision without talking to you or others.
